A-Team MySQL LDAP Authenticator (ateam_mysql_ldap_auth) is an authentication
|
|
plugin for MySQL 5.5.7 and up, and has been tested with 5.6 under FreeBSD.
|
|
This module allows you to create MySQL users that are then authenticated
|
|
against an LDAP server. This reduces administrative overhead and eliminates
|
|
your users having to remember a seperate username and password for MySQL.
|
|
Just like MySQL Enterprise's PAM module, for client side authentication
|
|
this plugin uses the clear_text password module as the LDAP server must
|
|
perform the password hasing and comparison. For command line clients this
|
|
is done by setting the following environment variable:
|
|
|
|
export LIBMYSQL_ENABLE_CLEARTEXT_PLUGIN=1
|
|
|
|
In MySQL Workbench this is acheived by going to go to the "Advanced" tab and
|
|
checking "Enable Cleartext Authentication Plugin" when editing a connction.

!!! IMPORTANT:
|
|
!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
!!! ENSURE THE COMMUNICATIONS PATH BETWEEN THE CLIENT AND SERVER IS SECURE!
|
|
!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
!!! By default MySQL does not use SSL so additional steps and network design
|
|
!!! are needed to ensure you're not exposing your credetials.
